The art of non-fiction

Granta deputy editor Alex Clark moderates this panel discussion featuring three contributors to Granta 101 – Tim Lott, Andrew Hussey and Xan Rice – who discuss their essays and their craft.

Tim Lott investigates the macabre murder of his friend, the celebrated film agent Rod Hall.

Andrew Hussey talks about the Long War in the banlieue, the outer-suburbs of Paris, where more than a million immigrants from north and sub-Saharan Africa have settled.

Xan Rice reports on his search for an old school friend, who disappeared in Angola while searching for his father, a pilot whose plane was shot down by rebels while he was flying a mission for the United Nations.
